It's time to ditch harmful, outdated beauty standards and build
real, lasting body positivity. It's time for a self-love
revolution! Every day we see movies, magazines, and social media
that make us feel like we need to change how we look. This takes a
toll on how we think about ourselves-and how we allow others to
treat us. And while many teens feel shame about their body, being a
teen girl of color can be hard in unique ways. Maybe you feel
alienated by the mainstream image of beauty, which is still thin,
white and able-bodied. In addition to that, you may also feel
pressure from within your community to measure up to a
different-but equally unfair-beauty standard. So, how can you start
feeling good about yourself when you're surrounded by these
unrealistic-and problematic-ideas about your body? In The Self-Love
Revolution, leading body image expert and creator of
#LoseHateNotWeight Virgie Tovar offers an unapologetic guide to
help you question popular culture and cultivate radical body
positivity. With this groundbreaking book, you'll identify and
challenge mainstream beliefs about beauty; understand the unique
tools girls of color have to counter negative body image; and build
real, lasting body empowerment. You'll also learn how to call out
diet culture, and discover ways to move beyond your own inner
critic and start building the unconditional love for yourself that
you deserve. It's time to explode society's beauty standards, stop
messing with diets, wear what you want, and recognize that your
body is your business. This book will help you find your way to
radical body positivity, one step at a time.

In this fun, fresh, fat-positive anthology, fat activist and sex
educator Virgie Tovar brings together voices from an
often-marginalized community to talk about and celebrate their
lives. Hot & Heavy rejects the idea that being thin is best,
instead embracing the many fabulous aspects of being fat--building
fat-positive spaces, putting together fat-friendly wardrobes,
turning society's rules into personal politics, and creating
supportive, inclusive communities. Writers, activists, performers,
and poets--including April Flores, Alysia Angel, Charlotte Cooper,
Jessica Judd, Emily Anderson, Genne Murphy, and Tigress
Osborn--cover everything from fat go-go dancing to queer dating to
urban gardening in their essays, exploring their experiences with
the word fat, pinpointing particular moments that have impacted the
way they think and feel about their bodies, and telling the story
of how they each became fat revolutionaries. Ground-breaking and
long overdue, Hot & Heavy is a fierce, sassy, thoughtful,
authentic, and joyous collection of stories about
unapologetically--and unconditionally--loving the body you're in.
